“Dominique is absolutely amazing with my dog Scarlet. From our initial meet and greet and all of her time and questions about my dog's specific needs, I knew she was a really caring and experienced dog handler. She knows my dog (unfortunately) loves to eat things off the ground and has to be watched liked a toddler, so she's incredibly attentive (and patient) with Scarlet. Would give Dominique 10 stars if I could and grateful to have her walking Scarlet on a weekly basis!”
About: I've been taking care of pets since elementary school, starting with helping neighbors. I have a natural affinity with all animals and am known for my patience in understanding and addressing their unique needs. I have my own dog, whom I've been caring for over the past nine years. Additionally, I've frequently looked after family members' dogs during their vacations or whenever they needed a sitter. My experience, combined with my genuine love for animals, ensures that every pet in my care receives the utmost attention and affection. I am currently available from 6 am until 11 pm for all your pets needs. I do have flexibility in my schedule so if anything needs to be discussed I am definitely open to that! In my home, pets enjoy a comfortable, clean, and supervised environment. I maintain a regular routine for feeding, exercise, and rest to keep them happy and healthy. I have a secure backyard for safe outdoor play and regular walks to keep them active and stimulated. When caring for pets in my client's home, I adhere strictly to the provided care instructions and routines. I maintain open communication with the owners, providing regular updates and photos to reassure them that their pets are well taken care of. I am vigilant about home security, ensuring all doors and gates are properly closed and locked. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, building a bond of trust and ensuring every pet feels loved and secure in my care.
“Maureen was impeccable, as always. She walked Bruiser, fed her according to my painfully detailed instructions, and gave her eye drops and pill medication. I was out of town for a week and needed Maureen to help out - when I came home it was like my dog didn't even notice I had left because Maureen made her feel so at home and cared for.”
“Excellent service. Very personable at meet and greet. The puppies warmed up to her quickly. She was punctual and did a great job walking both dogs. Will use her services again.”
“Hillary was amazing to work with and was wonderful walking my energetic pup! She was a great communicator and sent update pictures. Highly recommend and will be asking for more walks in the future from Hillary!!”
About: I grew up with a chow chow and an Australian Shepard in my home so I am familiar with big personalities! I helped raised them into old age and understand the challenges and joys of an older dog. Both my mother and sister have larger dogs which I look after as well when they are out of town. I know how special and strong the bond is between an animal and their human and treat an animal with sensitivity to this when their humans are away. I spent many years working on farms, caring for almost any animal you can imagine! I work remotely as a social worker so I am very flexible to help with your pet care needs! I do field work once a week but I create my own schedule so I am flexible with that as well. I have a 7 year old cat whose been with me since he was a young guy. It’s my joy to be attentive to his behaviors and needs to ensure his happiness and in return he makes me laugh every single day (:
About: While I’ve never had the chance to own a pet of my own, I’ve always loved animals and have been deeply involved in helping care for them. I’ve helped raise and care for two cats and three dogs within my close network of friends and family by taking part in everything from feeding, walking, training to playtime and building trust. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to read animal behavior, respond with patience and calm energy, and understand the daily needs and routines that keep pets happy and healthy. I may not have had my “own” pet yet, but I’ve shown up for animals like they were my own and I am looking forward to caring for animals while I'm exploring new opportunities in my career. I'm currently available full-time in the DMV area [Mon-Sun] between the hours of 0500 & 1800. I'm willing to travel to build a customer base. Caring for animals comes natural for me. I have a keen sense of awareness and can anticipate and meet the needs of animals just through observing their breathing, posture, and reactions to environmental stimuli. I always travel with water, treats, and blankets to account for changes in weather or in case of emergency.
“Nancy is fantastic. She takes my dog for a walk multiple times a week. She's very reliable and gives me feedback on my pet after each walk. She's on time and keeps my mind at ease to focus on work when I'm at work. Nancy and my dog really seem to enjoy their time together each day. I would definitely recommend Nancy to anyone needing a kind and responsible person to care for their pet.”
About: I have an 11 year old goldendoodle named Taffy who I have raised since she was a puppy. I have walked dogs and house sat for friends and family since I was young and will always take the opportunity to spend time with animals of all kinds! I am currently at home for the summer in the Frederick area so I have plenty of availability to take care of your pets. I’ll be going back to College Park at the end of August. I can follow any directions needed for caring for your fur babies. I can go for long walks to provide exercise, play (of course), cuddle, reinforce tricks/training, administer oral medicine, etc.. Just ask and I will probably be willing to accommodate any requests! I always make sure that your pet has access to fresh water and feed according to instructions.
